On September 15 of the first year of Gaia, the 1st Battalion of the North Sea Fleet arrived at Lake Shiraz. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tianfeng County, County Ya Council.

Ouyang Shuo summoned the main officials and generals of Tianfeng County together, and appointed Zhao Dewang as the county magistrate of Tianfeng County in public, and appointed the director of the internal affairs, the director of finance, and the director of material reserves.

The first battalion of the North Sea Fleet was separated from the North Sea Fleet and renamed the Saila Lake Naval Division Battalion, which was placed under the jurisdiction of Tianfeng County. The original first battalion was Zhou Feng, and he was reappointed as the battalion of the Xila Lake Water Division.

According to Pu Zhidao, director of the Tianfeng County Administration, there is a water village in Xila Lake, and there are water bandits.

Therefore, the first task of the Sila Lake Water Division Battalion was to clear the Sila Lake bandits. The waters of Lake Shiraz are vast, and the water bandits, as the head snakes of the land, are not a simple matter to eradicate them.

After Zhao Dewang took office, the first task in front of him was the construction of a small military port and a shipyard in Xila Lake. In addition, there is an even more difficult task, that is, to build an official road between Tianfeng County and Shanhai County. Ouyang Shuo has thought of the name of the official road, and it will be called Tianhai Road.

With a total length of more than 300 kilometers, Tianhai Road is the largest investment and the longest infrastructure construction in Shanhai County so far. In order to speed up the construction progress, Shanhai County and Tianfeng County will start the project at the same time, go hand in hand, and then close in the middle and connect as a whole.

The construction of Tianhai Road is mostly in the wilderness, and the construction environment is harsh, so it is necessary not only to prevent wild beasts, but also to guard against the attacks of rogues. Therefore, it is necessary to arrange an army to escort all the way.

The target of the Tianfeng County County Defense Battalion will give priority to the area along Tianhai Road.

The construction of Tianhai Road is of strategic significance. As long as post stations are built along the Tianhai Road and the banner of the lord of Shanhai County is planted, it will certainly enhance the deterrence and dominance of Shanhai County over the western part of the Lianzhou Basin.

Tianfeng County, Yongye Town, and Guangshui Town, forming an iron triangle, and then strung together by Tianhai Road, is enough to control the situation in the western region, even if any territory invites foreign aid, it is not enough to pose a threat to Shanhai County. Shanhai County has enough time to react to mobilize troops, organize defenses, or annihilate the enemy.

After occupying the three most important player territories in the west, Ouyang Shuo will adopt a soft policy towards the remaining player territories. The specific policy will have to be formulated slowly after Ouyang Shuo returns to Shanhai County.

After Ouyang Shuo explained to Zhao Dewang alone, he set off to return to Shanhai County that afternoon. On the way, he also took the personal guard battalion to inspect Yongye Town and Guangshui Town.

Shanhai County has all sent people to take over the four second-level townships such as Yongye Town, appointed chief officials, reformed the administrative structure, established urban defense battalions, and opened a series of policies such as the Sihai Qianzhuang branch.

Backed by the Eternal Night Forest, Eternal Night Town is positioned as a forestry town. Guangshui Town and Yishui Town are located as agricultural towns close to the riverbank, and the riverbank is convenient for cultivating fertile farmland. Gushan Town is backed by a large mountain, and Ouyang Shuo plans to set it up as the second mountain barbarian settlement community.

On the afternoon of September 18, Ouyang Shuo and his entourage returned to Shanhai County.

The first thing Ouyang Shuo did when he came back was to rush to the market and check the price of grain.

In the market, the price of grain has risen all the way, and each unit of grain has risen to 20 copper coins, which has directly doubled. With the continuous rise in food prices, lord players can no longer be calm, and have used their territory liquidity to purchase food. The far-sighted lord even began to sell basic resources such as timber and iron ore to obtain funds and increase grain purchases to ensure that the territory had grain stocks before November.

The rush to buy grain has further contributed to the rise in food prices. Nowadays, food is one price a day.

The main force selling grain is the chamber of commerce in Wangcheng in the major systems, and the grain in their hands is also purchased from farmers on the outskirts of Wangcheng, and it is not an unlimited supply.

In each system royal city, tens of millions of players have settled, and their existence is also a huge pressure on the food supply of the royal city. The merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, they are all human spirits. Seeing the rise in grain prices in the market, some large chambers of commerce even began to hoard grain in reverse, preparing to make a big profit.

Therefore, the turmoil caused by food is intensifying, and all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods are involved.

In the turmoil, Shanhai County was also affected. The major branches of Sihai Qianzhuang in the territory of the allies are in a hurry, the loan amount has increased exponentially, and the treasury is about to bottom out.

Ouyang Shuo immediately made a decision and allocated the income of 8,500 gold coins in the first half of September to all major branches. Mulan Town, Black Lion Town, and Tianshuang Town each increased their reserves by 1,500 gold coins, and Xunlong County and Luofeng County each increased their reserves by 2,000 gold coins.

It's a pity that this fund is only a drop in the bucket for the territory. The lords had to take a risk, and began to ask for money from the Liukou, just like Shanhai County.

The problem is, there is a limit to the rogues. Like Shanhai County, it is basically a one-time income after each territory promotion.

During Ouyang Shuo's absence, the camp in the east of the city had completed the task of suppressing bandits that was forced to be interrupted by the enemy's attack, and seized 4,200 gold coins. The suppression of bandits on the east and west roads, coupled with the clearing of player territory near the border, captured a total of 15,200 people, all of which were classified as Shanhai County.

During this period, one after another, life professional players were teleported to settle in Shanhai County. The members of the [Falling Moon Society] have reached the upper limit of 1,000 people, but unfortunately the [Falling Moon Society] is still some time away from being promoted.

In addition, Sun Lao and the others continued to contact scientists and invite them to settle in Shanhai County. Today, the team of scientists has grown to 45 and counting.

The obsolete equipment dumped by Ouyang Shuo's entrusted Xue Rose mercenary group has been sold out, and with this fund, the mercenary group began to set up Shanhai County offices in the major royal cities for Shanhai County.

After the office starts operating, Shanhai County will usher in a small population peak.

The 1st Brigade of the 1st Division has been rebuilt, and the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Battalions are directly replenished from the regular army prisoners, and the 1st and 2nd Battalions are still replenished by elite warriors from the mountain barbarian tribes. The two large-scale conscriptions before and after almost drained the war potential of these mountain barbarian tribes.

According to the plan, Shanhai County's promised operation to eradicate cottage bandits has lagged behind for more than half a month.

In order to gain the understanding and support of the mountain barbarian tribes, Tian Wenjing, director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, had to increase food aid to the mountain barbarian tribes again.

After Ouyang Shuo returned, he immediately launched a military operation to exterminate the bandit cottage, codenamed "Lynx".

Because it was a mountain and jungle operation, in addition to the personal guard battalion and the Shenji battalion, there were also eight battalions of the 1st and 3rd brigades in addition to the cavalry battalion participating in the "lynx" operation.

Leng Qian, deputy director of the Military Intelligence Department, led the capable and meticulous work of the Military Intelligence Group, and has already detected detailed information on the bandit cottage, and the situation is even more grim than expected.

The bandit cottage is located in the Evil Lion Ridge, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The population of the cottage has reached more than 14,000 people, and there are more than 8,000 combat bandits, including many elite bandits. The only trail up the mountain was set up by the bandits with three checkpoints, and it was really difficult to attack all the way up.

"Is there no second way up the mountain?" Ouyang Shuo was unwilling.

Leng Qian shook his head and said: "Behind the cottage is a cliff, the cliff is extremely steep, the strange rocks are craggy, and it is almost impossible to attack from behind. Unless ......"

"Unless what?"

"About a thousand meters from the cliff, there is a mountain peak, which is easy to climb. It's just that how to cross this kilometer barrier is a big problem. Even with a zipline, there is no way to attach the rope to the cliff face at the other end. Leng Qian obviously didn't give up hope.

Ouyang Shuo's heart moved, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and he blurted out: "The matter of fixing the rope, Benhou has a way to solve it." Ouyang Shuo thought of Bing'er's pet Xue'er, don't look at Xue'er's pocket, she is the top artificial intelligence, although she is only an ornamental pet after entering the game, but she is extremely powerful and can fly, and Xue'er will complete this mission, which is really suitable.

"Huh?" Although he knew that the prince would not speak falsely, Leng Qian was still a little surprised.

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand and said, "The Military Intelligence Department will carefully reconnoiter the opposite mountain and find a safe way up the mountain, and the army will set off tomorrow." ”

"Whoa!"

After Leng Qian said goodbye and left, Ouyang Shuo instructed Ge Hongliang, the director of military affairs, and asked him to urge the War Readiness Department to prepare ziplines, oil and other materials to ensure the smooth implementation of the "Lynx" operation.

At the same time, in order to reduce casualties, Ouyang Shuo ordered that two sword and shield battalions and an archer battalion be temporarily reorganized from the reserve army to go out with the army. In this way, in order to exterminate the bandits in Evil Shiling, Shanhai County mobilized more than 6,500 regular troops, which was the largest military operation in the past.

After discussing the details of the "Lynx" operation, it was already half past five in the afternoon, and it was really hard to think that he had just returned to the Hou Mansion and would set off tomorrow to suppress the bandits.

At dinner in the evening, Ouyang Shuo looked at Xue'er who was standing on Bing'er's shoulder and said, "Good Xue'er, I'll take you out to play tomorrow, okay?" ”

Xue'er's little eyes lit up, and she immediately flew over, flying around Ouyang Shuo's head, and said in a milky voice: "Go out to play, go out to play, lalala~~~"

Bing'er's eyes also lit up, and she said with a smile: "Brother, can Bing'er also go to play?" ”

Ouyang Shuo shook his head resolutely, "No, you still have to go to school tomorrow!" ”

Bing'er's little face immediately collapsed, and she poked the rice in the bowl with chopsticks angrily, and muttered in her mouth: "Eccentric ghost, eccentric ghost, bad brother ~~~"

Ouyang Shuo smiled bitterly and had to explain, "Brother will take Xue'er out tomorrow, that's an important matter, but it's not really going out to play." ”

"Really?" Bing'er was a little unconvinced.

Ouyang Shuo glared at her, "When did my brother lie to you?!" ”

"Okay, Bing'er forgive you." The little girl's emotions come and go quickly. (To be continued.) )
